About Shadowfell Sundries

Hi, I'm Kate. I invent, forge, and scribe everything you see here at Shadowfell Sundries with the necessary mental help of my two giant floofs! I fell in love with Dungeons & Dragons years ago and once I bought my own dice at my local game store, I knew it was something I needed to create myself and I have never stopped since. 

I started to design and create dice sets for myself and my partner, which then turned into his friends and some online pals... and now I'm here; loving creating and sharing the craft with anyone who looks at dice the same way as I do. ​

Am I a dice goblin? Absolutely, and I wouldn't have it any other way. They're my shinies! My treasures!

​You will probably notice that some of my styles as I get this going are a bit... less usual. Though glitter is amazing, I do tend to traverse in the direction of a tad more dark and moody when I create for myself (I did name my business after the Shadowfell after all!). So if you have any questions about some possible darker themed dice, feel free to send in a message!

Have a query? Get in touch with me and I'll be happy to assist you.

Thank You for supporting my small business (20)_edited.png
  • Where can I see other examples of your work?
    Though I have been making dice for myself and friends for the past few years, I am currently just starting to grow into my own small business and figuring out the ropes that come along with that task so I am currently only on etsy with the hopes to have a fully established Instagram following soon!
  • How can I order personalized dice?
    In time, there will be a page dedicated to custom commissioned dice sets, but as I am still growing I do have a section to message me about any inquires for custom sets! I would love to assist you with your inquiry, discussing specific designs, materials, and any other special requirements you may have. I aim to provide a seamless and enjoyable experience and will respond to your inquiry promptly to start creating your unique set of dice in the form above and on the homepage!
  • Can you recreate one of your previous sets for a commission?
    YES and partially no. Each set is fully handmade making no two dice the same, BUT I do keep track of how I made each set so I can always try my best to recreate something that caught your fancy.
  • Will you be re-stocking dice?
    While still very small, most of my dice are only made that one time to allow for more varieties. If you show interest in a style that is sold-out, feel free to reach out and I will do my best to re-stock what you have your eye on!
  • What designs do you make?
    A LARGE VARRIETY! I create sets featuring: -Glitter -Shimmers -Colored translucent and opaque -Tri/Duo colored translucent and opaque -Inclusions of many kinds (including chunky shaped glitters) -Cloudy -Smoky -Tie-dye -Color-shifting And I am always working on more designs as well!
  • Are your dice balanced?
    Ensuring that each die is balanced is crucial for fair gameplay and I take pride in crafting high-quality, balanced dice to the best of any dice-maker's ability. Below how I properly ensure the fairest dice possible. Balancing Check: 1. Fill a glass or bowl with water and add a few drops of dish soap to reduce surface tension. 2. Gently place a single die in the water. A balanced die should float and not consistently fall on the same number. 3. Rotate the die a few times to ensure it doesn’t favor certain faces. For more precision, I repeat this test 35 times to see if I can find inconsistencies. 4. If they are balanced, they are ready to go to a dice goblin!
  • Why are my handmade dice so expensive?
    Unlike mass-produced dice, my handmade dice are created individually by only myself and each set takes significant time and attention to detail. Small business dice-maker's like myself don't have big machinery or multiple preassure pots at the ready, so each set does take a heafty chunk of time. Each die is also carefully shaped, polished, and inspected to ensure precision and aesthetic appeal. I use premium materials, some of which are custom-sourced, adding to the cost. Additionally, many of my dice feature unique designs and intricate artwork, which require advanced techniques and specialized tools. When you purchase a set of handmade dice from Shadowfell Sundries, you're not just buying gaming accessories; you're investing in miniature works of art that enhance your gaming experience.
  • What are your shipping and return policies?
    I ship within the United States only for the time being and will provide you with a tracking number for your order once it’s shipped. Your dice will be packaged in a cardboard box mailer with shredded paper padding to keep them safe during transit, while also inside a small velvet bag so they don’t get chipped or cracked. Pre-made sets typically ship within 2-4 business days once paid for. Custom commissions will take a bit longer, expect about 1-2 weeks to produce and ship your dice depending on how many revisions are needed. Any time constraints will be communicated with you! I will offer full refunds for sets that arrive damaged or get lost in transit! I’ll do my best to set right any orders that are mis-delivered due to an incorrect address, but it’s ultimately the customer’s responsibility to double check that the shipping address is correct on your confirmation email. Since these dice are all made by hand by little ol me, they may include small imperfections such as microbubbles or rough edges from sanding, all of which I do try to ensure are seen in the photos and videos of the product. I try to make every set as perfect as possible, but I unfortunately will not accept returns based on these reasons alone.
  • What do I need to provide for a custom dice set?
    The more details the better! I’ve created customized dice based on all sorts of inspiration from a multitude of gateways and ideas! As long as you have the vision, I can assure we can create something magical.
